SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our school. Using the app, I can post jobs, pay and review, and chat with providers who are scheduled for upcoming jobs. When I have a teacher call out last-minute, I can rely on SitterTree. It really could not be a simpler process.

I own a preschool and I cannot say enough about how much we love SitterTree. We consistently find wonderful educators to fill our needs. The customer service is prompt, kind, and quick to solve any issue. 10/10 would recommend this app for any substitute educator needs.

Shanice
Hi! My name is Shanice. I have over 5 years of experience helping care for kids through babysitting, assisting with schoolwork, supervising activities, and creating a safe, positive environment. I’m comfortable with routines like meal prep, light cleaning, bedtime, and keeping kids engaged with fun, appropriate activities. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on safety. My goal is to make sure children feel supported, understood, and encouraged while giving parents peace of mind. As a mother myself, I truly enjoy helping kids learn, play, and grow, and I’m excited for the opportunity to support your family.

Jojo
As a 20-something aspiring caregiver, I'm excited to provide a nurturing environment for children of all ages, from toddlers to teens. While I don't have professional experience yet, I'm a responsible, patient, and friendly individual who loves engaging kids through creative activities like drawing, reading, crafting, and music. I'm also happy to assist with homework and chores around the house. Although I don't have a car or driving license, I'm available to babysit in your home. I'm currently in college and look forward to applying my passion for childcare to support your family.

Sydney
Hi! I am a first year biology student at the UIC, I graduated in the top 10 percent of my class in highschool. I have spent the last 8 years caring for my little sister after school while my parents worked. From the time she was born when I was 11 to now she has been my favorite person ever and I found a love for child care in her. I have cared for her when she was sick and when she was healthy, when she was excited and when she was sad or angry, when she had free time and when she had homework to get done. I will care for your kids just as I would my own little sister because I understand that they're your little pipers and you love them just as much as I love her.

My name is Tariana Hooks. I am passionate about caring for young children and helping them learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, loving environment. I have over 4 years of experience working with children and am CPR certified and a Mandated Reporter. I currently work at a highly respected and qualified learning center, where I continue to gain valuable experience in early childhood education and development. I am also working toward my CDA in Infant and Toddler Care and enjoy creating fun, engaging experiences that support children’s growth and learning.

Vicky
Hi! My name is Vicky Vasquez, and I’m a passionate childcare professional with a background in early childhood and special education. I was born and raised in Chicago and have spent my entire life here, building strong roots in the numerous communities and working closely with children and families. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and spent five amazing years working as a preschool/ special education teacher with Chicago Public Schools. During that time, I supported a diverse group of learners, created engaging lesson plans, and built nurturing environments where every child could thrive. Although I recently made a career shift into recruiting, I deeply miss working directly with children and being part of their daily growth and development. Babysitting allows me to stay connected to my passion by caring for and supporting young children in a meaningful way. I aim to bring a calm, patient, and positive energy to every family I work with. My teaching background helps me create fun, educational, and safe experiences for kids of all ages and kids with all needs! I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide your child(ren) with a caring, dependable, and engaging babysitter!
